Bass 101 - What's in your gullet?

Is there anything better than a bass smashing a top water fly? I love the no-nonsense take of a hungry bass. Bass don't screw around when it's time to eat. It's just track it down and drop the hammer.

Speaking of which, it's that time of year. Water temps are warming and the bass are moving into the shallows to feed. These next 10 weeks or so will provide some of the most exciting fishing of the year. Get out the poppers and wiggle minnows and head to your nearest bass water asap. Wiggle minnows caught these dudes in the pics. Look in the back of that bass' throat in the top photo and you'll see why I was fishing a wiggle minnow. Matching the hatch, I guess you could say.

Very nice. I'm ready to BoogleBug some bass myself. Next weekend Kelly and I are headed to FL for Suwannees and Florida LMs... and I think trying for Shoalies in GA (maybe AL) on the way back. I can hardly wait.

Sounds like a great trip, Jay. I look forward to reading the report on your blog. Heck, you guys should take the long way home, swing through Texas and pick up a few Guadalupe bass to complete the slam.

TyI agree the next 3 months are going to be hot for poppers. Juat found your blog and like everything I have read. Good info. I will be joining up with your group, because I feel our blogs parallel each other.
